"Another Modular Synthesizer video! This time I'm talking about how to use the Intellijel uVCF multimode filter module as a sine, saw and weird-square-thingy VCO. If you have any questions or comments, please post them below :) Thanks for watching!

Introducing Modular - The Synth App for iPad and iPhone
Published on Aug 30, 2013 PulseCodeInc·15 videos
"Modular looks, acts, and sounds like a hardware modular synthesizer to give you features that musicians want such as pulse width modulation, oscillator sync, 4 pole ladder filters, and 1v/oct filter tracking. Traditional modular systems are expensive and out of reach for the average artist. Modular is here to bridge that gap and allow everyone the opportunity to use these powerful synthesizers."

Coming soon from Pulse Code, the makers of Rhythm Studio, BeatBox (BtBx) and Digital Baseline (DB 303).

The Simonsound - The Beam B/W In the Shadow of the Skylon Featuring
Trios - Tristram Cary (edit)
Published on Aug 30, 2013 the simonsound·35 videos
"A rare performance of the chance composition created by electronic music pioneer Tristram Cary.
Trios combines a scored performance on EMS VCS3 synthesiser (in this case prerecorded using a EMS Synthi AKS and played back on reel to reel tape) and two performers using dice to randomly decide which tracks to play from two vinyl records. For this performance CD's were used in place of the vinyl.
The dice and holders in this performance were Tristrams own, donated to Ian Helliwell.
Tape prepared by Vicky Fenlon, Ian Helliwell and Simon James. Performed by Helliwell and James at Hackney Picture House, London on 17/03/13.
Additional camera work by Stuart Heaney. Directed by Ian Helliwell."
Title - The Beam B/W In the Shadow of the Skylon
Artist - The Simonsound
Format - 10" clear vinyl with printed map/Digital download
Release date - available Now

A fantastical Monorail journey in sound
This latest release from The Simonsound is a radiophonic ride aboard their imaginary 'SS Mk I Monorail', taking in five out of this world destinations along the way. Board the Monorail and be whisked to Outer Space World, Underwater World, Inner Space, Robot World and The Land of Myths and Beasts. Exploring the more experimental aspects of their previous work, 'The Beam' is a carefully crafted electronic collage mixing Buchla, Moog and EMS synthesisers, with tape manipulated percussion and acoustic sources.
Like a souvenir record from a mid century World¹s Fair, ŒThe Beam¹ follows in the footsteps of early electronic composers such as Raymond Scott, Tristram Cary and Tom Dissevelt.
The B-side, 'In the Shadow of the Skylon' is an oscillating ode to a long lost London landmark and futuristic structure created for the Festival of Britain in 1951. Hovering over the South Bank like a UFO, the Skylon pointed into space like a sign post for what was to come. Sadly the Skylon never got to see the future it aimed to represent as it was torn down at the end of the Festival by a petty Conservative government. ŒIn the Shadow of the Skylon¹ celebrates its short optimistic life.
In addition to the standard release, there will also be 25 'Monorail Pilot's Packs' which will include the 10" coloured vinyl, a printed map, booklet and Monorail ticket, a sew on 'Pilot's Patch', a 1/4 inch magnetic tape loop and a CD featuring an extended trip into Outer Space World and outtakes from the project. These will all be housed in a letter press printed pack featuring the Simonsound Transit Authority logo on the front."

Rancho Electro - Poolside sunset synth jams in Ojai, CA
Gear at the event will include: EMS Synthi, ARP2600, MOOG Little Phatty, Analog4, modular gear as well as some more esoteric instruments.
via Mikael Jorgenen
"n September 2013, I will be hosting three Sunday afternoon, free, poolside Synthesizer Jam parties at The Ojai Rancho Inn in Ojai, CA.
I’ve asked some friends to bring some gear and help us help you get some sunset synth vibes cooking.
The music will begin at 6pm.
09.15.2013 – Esteemed fellow Wilco travelers Nathaniel Murphy and Joshua Goldsmith will bring their intellectual funk to the poolside proceedings.
09.22.2013 – Ojai local Dave Palmer will school us all on the distortion free oscillations of wavetable synths. Xander Singh shall bring his electron squeezing machines & we’ll see what that sounds like.
09.29.2013 – To celebrate the release of my new record “Mikael Jorgensen & Greg O’Keeffe” we’ll have vinyl copies of it and the elusive “ARMZ” 7″ on purple translucent vinyl for sale as well as the debut of “QUINDAR” featuring James Merle Thomas on lozenges and concepts.
I hope that some of you fellow west coasters might join us for some poolside electronic music at sundown in the Ojai valley.
Checklist:
Bathing Costumes
Blanket / beach chairs
BYO Wine / Spirits / Beer
A Sweater (or “Jumper” if you will), for when the sun goes down, it gets cozily chilly if you can’t find purchase around the fire-pits.
See you soon."

Interview with Udo Hanten on Astronauta Pinguim
"Udo Hanten was born in Krefeld (North Rhine Westfalia, Germany), in 1956. His first instrument was an acoustic guitar, but it was the electronic possibilities that Udo could achieve with that guitar plus a pickup, a tube radio, a spring reverb and a reel to reel recorder that led him choose his career as an electronic musician and producer later on. In the late '60s he started in music, in late '70s he started to work with audio performances and installations, in the early '80s he started to work with video and in the mid-'80s he started with Laserworks. Udo is in the business with all those art forms since then!..."

Moog Modular Inspired Bed Sheet & Pillow Case Set
Unfortunately not the biggest pic, but there you have it. via Elettorama on Facebook.
The pillow cases do appear to be based on the Moog 960 sequencer or Synthesizers.com Q960. The sheet appears to be more an interpretation. If you can ID anything, feel free to comment.
